Free online decoder that expands compact UUID encodings back into full canonical UUID strings.

How it works

This tool decodes compact encodings back into 16-byte UUID values and formats them as UUID strings. It helps debug short IDs used in URLs.

Example

Input:
(short ID)

Output:
550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000

FAQ

Why does decoding fail?

The short ID might not be UUID-based or might use a different alphabet/encoding. Ensure formats match.

Does this work for ULID or NanoID?

No. ULID and NanoID are different identifier formats and are not direct UUID encodings.
